Jephta van Dintherhas become known for his distinctive aesthetic where illusion and reality are often intertwined and the boundaries between them slowly shift. Through a conscious play with perception, he often creates dystopian sinkholes that challenge our senses and open up new, unexpected worlds.

His new work  Mercury Rising  examines the complexity of language and human communication. The performance, created in collaboration with the participating dancers,Dawn Jani Birley,Rita MazzaandLukas Malkowski, uncover a terrain of ancient as well as future nonlinear languages. Together they navigate a landscape of communication, signs, agency and corporeality.
